>>50614170Hino tried to 1-Up Yokai Watch 4 by making Orion a bombastic sequel so he bought a separate developer studio to help make the game but in the process he was essentially scammed, the studio team he brought in barely knew how to make real games and they only managed to shit out a preset tech demo with pre-loaded animations and cinematics, that's where those previous gameplay excerpts came from.
Now Orion had to restart development TWICE, to the point that the entirety of the second arc of the anime long past aired 4 years ago, so now Level-5 feels forced to change the name of the whole project. They changed course and instead of following the anime, they're going full-on on a original storyline, god only knows if this game will even release.
